The energetically-favorable coordination of aldehydes and ketones - but not esters or amides - to Ni<sup>0</sup> during Suzuki-Miyaura reactions can lead either to exquisite selectivity and enhanced reactivity, or to inhibition of the reaction. Aryl halides where the C-X bond is connected to the same π-system as an aldehyde or ketone undergo unexpectedly rapid oxidative addition to [Ni(COD)(dppf)] (<b>1</b>), and are selectively cross-coupled during competition reactions. When aldehydes and keto ...[more]
